PUNXSUTAWNEY â A former Sandy Township employee is facing charges for open lewdness and stalking in Punxsutawney for alleged incidents that occurred in the Aldi parking lot.
The Punxsutawney Borough Police filed charges against Perry Lee Bowser, 62, of DuBois, on Dec. 15, including four counts of disorderly conduct, four counts of indecent exposure, four counts of open lewdness, three counts of stalking, and one felony charge for corruption of minors.
Sandy Township Manager Shawn Arbaugh told The Courier Express Tuesday that Bowser, the former engineer, is no longer employed by the township.
According to an affidavit of probable cause, a woman allegedly saw Bowser committing a lewd act recently in the parking lot, and then two weeks later, was in the same parking lot with her family, who also saw him allegedly committing a lewd act and confronted him.
